Not mine. But someone just sent 800 BTC to a Gox address.
Judging by the amount he sent, I can't tell of it's the worst decision he's made, nonetheless, it's still a pretty bad one. I for one hope he gets them back!

Wow. I don't know how people do that kind of stuff. I check and recheck even a .01 transaction. Of course I am almost obsessive compulsive over every satoshi so maybe I am the one with the problem.  Grin

Sorry that happened to you. There will inevitably be some losses as bad businesses are exposed and go under. I hope you get your funds back.

I see, that is why I can't quite bring myself to spring for new miners. I buy up used stuff with fiat but I won't spring for new gear that will be obsolete in a short time.

Didn't hold the 12 million doges I had at the very beginning of the coin, I bought most of them at 4 satoshis.

670USD/coin, we can still make a huge profit when Bitcoin gets huge

Also missed very nice $380 price this April: I was on a Caribbean trip that time and was completely away from internet, cell phone..

made 54 coins all up but spent them as I mined them on fuel, groceries, 1.5kW solar panel system, etc..

still have two of the GPUs, a Jally and adding some next gen hardware this week from the profits.

Did OK by turning $2K into ~$7K but it could have been $2K into $1M (buy $2K when $2/BTC for 1K BTCs then sell 1K BTCs @ $1K during peak for $1M)

Oh well...got some goodies out of it I suppose and now self renewing wallet / hardware
